Old fat white dude. Trying to come to terms with living in a country that is 50% willfully ignorant and hateful. Proud atheist becoming more and more anti religion (faith/belief is a slightly different conversation). Nullius in verba
Anyone else spend a lot of time making out to this album with only the stereo lights on? No? Just me?

I just now saw this. It needs to be hanging in a museum. It’s a work of art!

The only people who claim the Bible is a moral book have only read the 10% that they quote. The other 90% is horrific, especially the Old Testament. The Quran is the same. So not only is it all nonsense written 3500-1800 years ago by Iron Age goat herders, but it is evil ad well. Christian Pride

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I wont stand for the Natnl Anthem again until the Nazis are out of power.I hope I’m not the only one,but I am willing to be.These people have stolen my country from me and I can’t do much about it.But blowing a whistle,recording their crimes,raising my voice and taking a knee seem the least I can do

I would like for everyone to just take a minute and really think about Ashli Babbitt vs Alex Pretti.Google it to get all the details if you need to.And then see the current administration for the monstrosity and perversion it is.And then call your senators and house member and tell them to stop this

It’s a grift. It’s all a grift. And now it turns out that the main function of The Board of Grift is a real estate development in what used to be Gaza. Stealing land from Palestinians to make Orange Felon and his cronies richer. And everyone signing on wants something from him (like entry to US)

And this is also why no amount of good that is done for them by Dems will ever matter, because it is done for all including all the others.

The majority of Americans are behind you. I have contacted my rep in the House and both my Senators. But I am from a red district in MI and doubt any of the 3 meant to represent me will vote as I wish. Elyssa Slotkin has already said as much.
Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

I don’t know why we aren’t seeing more of this. Especially in MN and Chicago. The easy answer is the police tacitly support ICE. I hope with all my heart that isn’t true.
THE POLICE STEPPING UP‼️ WOW‼️

MORE OF THIS PLEASE ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

The police have the greatest opportunity for a rebrand here‼️
